Genre Grandeur – The Kings of Summer (2013) – Digital Shortbread

So I’m a bit late on re-blogging this one, but here’s my latest contribution to MovieRob’s Genre Grandeur. It’s a review of a coming-of-age film that I’m pretty sure no one saw, The Kings of Summer. Take a look!

For this month’s first entry for Genre Grandeur February – Coming of Age movie’s, here’s a review of The Kings of Summer (2013) by Tom of Digital Shortbread.

Great pick Tom! I actually saw this one in a local film festival in town and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was hilarious and also has some genuinely emotional moments. I love Nick Offerman too and that wonton scene was a hoot!

Ooh, seeing this kind of film in a film fest environment woulda really excited me! May have even led to me giving it higher marks. I love the buzz surrounding indie films. Which is why I want to try and do my best to get out to Sundance at some point. Yah, Kings of Summer may not be a big movie with grand plans or anything but it certainly has its place and is noted for its fine performances all around.
